Pros

Good pay, for those years where bonuses and merit increases were available to employees. With poor company performance and Covid impacts, don't expect to be seeing any additional pay for years to come.

Cons

Management should be locked up for corruption. 3 years of horrible decision making, the executive team milked a strong company with a pre existing backlog and collected their checks before retirement. What was an amazing company, driven down the tubes. Several poor executive management decisions hiring outsiders that didn't stay longer than 2 years, as well as putting Operations people in charge of Sales and Customers Satisfaction. A defensive and angry attitude did not work well internally or with the customers. Significant market share has been lost, and the competition has caught up leading to PAC going through layoffs and cost reductions (furloughs, employee merit cancellation, and no future bonuses). 5 years ago I would have said come to PAC, but the writing is on the wall and this ship is going down. I wouldn't want anyone to join as it would be a career limiting move.

Pros

Pretty laid back and good work/life balance.

Cons

There are little room for young people for growth as most of the career opportunities are saturated by old-timers and literally you need to count your years to earn that position rather than by your skill sets or accomplishment.

Pros

Relatively easy to get hired due to the high turnover rate. Good way to get on with a major airline. You will work side by side with airline employees and can demonstrate your skills and character. You will learn their technical data, procedures, and paperwork making you a potentially valuable asset. In the meantime you will be getting paid and you will be receiving rather good benefits.

Cons

This is not an avionics company. 96% of the company has no idea what an airplane is or how the aviation industry works. They are a disorganized, poorly managed electronics company with more finger pointing than the recent Democratic debates. HR has no concept of aviation industry standards. Not willing to keep up with industry pay. QA and maintenance control has very little actual aviation experience. Logistics only knows part numbers and has no concept of what the parts do.
